"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

The suit argues that it was illegal for Bayer to pay a competitor to stay out of the market as part of a settlement in a legal dispute over the Cipro patent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal forced hundreds of thousands of Californians to collectively overpay millions of dollars for the drug, the lawsuit claimed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Without generic competition, drug prices are enormously high,” said Joseph Saveri, an attorney with Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein, who is representing California consumers in the case. “These agreements are instrumental in keeping them enormously high.” \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The class-action case stems from a 1996 settlement of a patent dispute over Cipro between Bayer and Barr Laboratories, which was planning to sell a generic version of the antibiotic. After five years of litigation – and in light of projections that Bayer could lose about $1 billion in profits over several years if a generic were to step into the market – the companies settled the case.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The terms of the agreement involved Bayer paying Barr nearly $400 million to delay making or selling the generic until after the expiration of the patent in December 2003. Between 1997 and the end of 2003, Bayer raised the price of Cipro by 16 percent and made a profit of about $5 billion, according to court documents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This practice of paying pharmaceutical competitors to delay entry into the market is not unusual. In fiscal year 2011, 28 of these so-called \u003ca href=\"http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2011/10/mma.shtm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">“pay-for-delay” arrangements\u003c/a> were inked. They involved 25 drugs that had combined annual U.S. sales of more than $9 billion.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These types of settlements have been criticized by government agencies ranging from the \u003ca href=\"http://www.ftc.gov/os/testimony/100727antitrustoversight.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Federal Trade Commission [PDF]\u003c/a> to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.justice.gov/atr/cases/f247700/247708.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">U.S. Department of Justice\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://oag.ca.gov/news/press_release?id=2022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">California attorney general’s office\u003c/a>. The FTC estimates that as a result of these pay-for-delay deals, American consumers pay an additional $3.5 billion for prescription drugs each year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Drugmakers have largely prevailed when these arrangements are challenged in federal courts. Over the course of defending against the class-action case in California courts in the past decade, Bayer has won in both the trial and appeals courts with judges relying on federal case law.

The California Supreme Court last month agreed to review a 10-year-old class-action lawsuit involving the antibiotic Cipro (ciprofloxacin), which originally was manufactured by drugmaker Bayer. The suit argues that it was illegal for Bayer to pay a competitor to stay out of the market as part of a settlement in a legal dispute over the Cipro patent.

We do not want our mission marred or affected by politics – anyone’s politics.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Starting this afternoon, we will have calls with our network and key supporters to refocus our attention on our mission and get back to doing our work.
